Piku: git push deployments to your own servers
summary
Piku is a minimal Git-driven PaaS you can bootstrap onto a fresh VPS: ~1,000 lines of Python installs nginx, uWSGI and incron, provisions LetsEncrypt certs and runs apps via git push deploys. Demo deploys a Bottle WSGI app, a Node websocket chat, and a compiled C server; background workers and Postgres via bootstrap playbooks are shown. Claim: multiple runtimes work and it runs 19 apps on a $5 droplet in practice, and the demos all succeed.
